The V/Oct input will control the root output.

The Lead input will control the third output.

The Voicing input will control the fifth output.

The Quality input will control the seventh output.

8. Harm

Controls the Auto-Harmonization, and Quantization settings.

This will quantize the input V/Oct to the selected Harm mode’s scale, and automatically

adjust the chord quality to stay within the key.

Normal and Melody Mode

When the LED is off Auto-harm is disabled, and no quantization is done to the V/oct and

Lead inputs.

When the LED is blue Auto-harm is Major. Both the V/Oct and Lead input will be quantized

to the major scale.

When the LED is green Auto-harm is Minor. Both the V/Oct and Lead inputs will be quantized

to the minor scale.

It’s worth mentioning that the minor scale includes a dominant fifth instead of a minor
fifth.

Poly Modes

When the LED is Blue all voices will be quantized to Major.

When the LED is Green all voices will be quantized to Minor.

When the LED is Teal all voices will be quantized to Chromatic.

When the LED is off all voices are unquantized.

9. Triad

Changes the signal present at the Mix output.

When the LED is off, all four outputs are mixed into the Mix output.
